Description
What a 2000L turnkey package really includes
Most requests for this size come from breweries that have outgrown a 500–1000L kit and need repeatable batches without adding floor space. A typical package covers mash tun, lauter tun, kettle, whirlpool, hot liquor tank, plate heat exchanger, PLC cabinet, and a bank of jacketed conical fermenters matched to your fermentation schedule.
Vessel construction and surface finish
Shells are 3mm SUS304 as standard; we switch to 316L when the product stream carries high chloride loads or you run sour programs in the same room. Interior welds are TIG, ground flush, then pickled and passivated. Product-contact surfaces finish at Ra ≤0.8µm. Dimple jackets cover the cone and lower cylinder — the areas that actually see active fermentation heat — and each zone gets its own solenoid and manual bypass.
Working pressure on the fermenters is 2 bar, with the safety valve set at 3 bar. Headspace runs about 25%, which matters once you push high-gravity worts or dry-hop heavily.
Controls and cleaning
The PLC handles step sequencing, temperature ramps, and CIP routing from one HMI. We leave the CIP pump and skid as a separate line item when the customer already owns one — no reason to duplicate a working pump. Glycol connections are DN25 tri-clamp with isolation valves at each tank, so a single tank can be pulled offline without draining the loop.

FAQ
How many fermenters should I order? Divide your weekly target volume by 2000L, then add one tank as a buffer for turnaround and cleaning cycles.
Can the tanks handle dry hopping? Yes, with a 25% headspace allowance and a hop port on the cone.
Is the system expandable? The PLC cabinet ships with spare I/O; adding tanks later is a wiring job, not a rebuild.
Tell us your batch size, beer type, number of fermentation tanks and available space. We can recommend the tank volume, cooling area and configuration for your brewery.

Although there were a few minor issues, thanks to Polly’s help, it looks brilliant and has brought my little distillery quite a few new customers.
Very good！！I see now in my texting to you that in my excitement over having the installation here in the USA I totally forgot to give you and the company of ACE a very big compliment on the quality of the whole Installation!! It all looks fabulous and the way you packed it in the container was extraordinary!! I am very impressed with your company and want to say a big thank you to everybody who worked on my order!!
We have been using this still for a few batches now making whiskey, gin and a few other spirits and we are very happy with the results so far. The gear works well and gives good control during distillation. The spirit comes out clean and consistent from batch to batch and we have gotten the flavor profile we were looking for. It has also been easy to operate and maintain. It has been a great addition to our distillery and I’d definitely recommend it to other craft distillers looking for reliable equipment.”
